Yeah, where are the dividing lines for the scores? Since the scores can go up to 380....
I had to take that Jungian thing for a class I took. According to that test, my personality type is found in less than 1% of the population, and is the same personality type of Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, and Princess Di. I guess that's why nobody knows what in the hell I'm talking about, most of the time. Mad
Anyway as far as the other test, I KNOW I'm type A (literally in my blood), but what about someone who scores 345-380? Corportate CEO maybe?

There is no dividing line because not every person is just an A or B extreme. The point is that it is a scale and you are trying to place yourself on it; shades of gray. The Jungian test is better because the results are demonstrated through profession.

I win! 282 Razz And yes I laminate everything. That way I can clean all of the elementary school goo off it. While I am not an angry person, I certainly have issues about time and the wasting thereof. In that way Japan drives me up the wall. Also, allowing children to "clean" the school is some thing that grosses me out. Kids taking a filthy rag and pushing it around for a bit is not cleaning- it's a waste of instruction time and wholly unhygenic. Hmmm. Type A, huh? Well perhaps a bit

My girlfriend is type A and I:m still pretty certain I am type B. Can Type A girl and type B boy match? My theory is that type As and type As don:t match. Type Bs and type bs are okay but no housework gets done so maybe it isn:t okay but type a and type b is the best desho!!!!!

I love my kids to clean my classroom becuase that means I don:t have to and they learn the important phrase; clean up time.

Aloha.

Hey, I'm INFP too! And yeah, a type B. I got 150. Definitely don't laminate things, but they're organized in my head (much like my room; organized in the head, but not in reality).
